Whilst walking the dog this morning I was wondering what I'd buy if had a bit of spare cash. In my early days I was a Suzuki man and I really wanted a GSX1100 Katana they came out just after I'd bought a standard GSX100ET bugger. But after recently looking a classic bike mechanics mag I must admit I am in awe of the naked CBX1000. But if I could get a reasonable one of either bike for sensible money which would I buy. I am thinking CBX. What would you buy. We are taking sensible money here not NR750s with 0 miles on the clock, now there's a thought. You've £3k to play with. It might not be mint but it will be a runner.
I had a silver CBX super sport many years ago, great big six cylinder lump of lovelyness. I used and abused the bike to death and it never let me down, Its the one bike i wish was still sat in my garage, seen a few for sale at around £4k
The Suzuki is very iconic and legendary but soooo trapped in the '80s, styling wise. The Honda doesn't have a style that I'm aware of and so is timeless. Timeless, brutal and turns heads so fast Lawyers4you would be hunting you down waving claim forms. No question for me CBX inducts Katanas and exhausts the parts.
